Graduating and Moving On | Justin
Downtown Providence
I just had my last class at Brown ever yesterday, which is crazy. I’m feeling kind of sad and scared about the future. I don’t know, most of the semester I’ve been pretty excited. I’m excited for what’s next, ready to move on. You know, it feels very real suddenly. I’ve been a student for most of my life. Suddenly I won’t be a student. Don’t know where I’m going to live or who the people around me will be. So that’s feeling pretty intense and real right now.
I did TAPS (Theatre Arts & Performance Studies) and Literary Arts. I don’t quite know what’s next. I know that I always want to act and have theater in my life, and I’ll always be writing. I don’t want to necessarily put financial pressure onto those things, or put the pressure of having to financially sustain myself onto those things. It could be just stressful and also creatively hard. So I want to find a job that I enjoy that’s not necessarily my passion. I’m just going to apply for lots of different stuff. And want to be in a city where there’s lots of theater. I’m not sure if that’s New York or somewhere else. I’ve been thinking about Chicago. It’s cheaper to live there. But then so many of my friends are in New York already or going to be. Maybe it would be better to be there. So I’m not sure.
